It'd really save a lot of time if you'd just tell us what this ostensible hidden agenda is.

Who thinks he a good ole boy? A black guy from Harvard who lives in Chicago?

What is the color of the sky in your world?

Even if I did explain it many would tear it apart anyway.

The color in my sky is whatever it wants to be.

I dont allow others to paint my sky for me like some do. I dont follow the leader like many do and he is banking on that.

I didnt even know he was black until this election. Now he is a black man with mixed parents.

Ok I get it, it fits the bill so you are now pushing him as a black man because it is right for the time.

Its called ignore if you dont want to read my post.

If you feel Art's being hostile, which I don't really get, I'll hope that you still consider my method of discussion to be polite enough to warrant an answer. If so, please answer the following question:

What, in your belief, is Barack Obama's hidden agenda, and what justification do you have to support that belief? I'm genuinely curious.

It's amazing that people are criticizing a political candidate for using common words that are in the dictionary, in our daily language and ALWAYS spoken at political rallies. It sounds as if nobody here has ever been to a convention or seen a campaign speech.

I've been to dozens of sales meetings where the sales manager stands up and shouts "We can do it. Yes we can." That was ....uh... 20 years ago! I've been around sooooo many people who talk about change. That isn't anything new. Bill Clinton used Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" as a theme, didn't he?

Obama has repeatedly taken lines from other candidates, even Hillary Clinton. There are only so many energetic, upbeat phrases one can use in a motivational speech. She once said something about moving forward and the press was all over her saying she stole "Movement" from Obama.

Gee, when I was a baby my Mommy used to ask me if I had a movement. Was she plagiarizing? I'm really beginning to believe that a vote for Obama is only a vote against Clinton, since people aren't using their brains. We should have all voted on Feb 5 so the media wouldn't be running this race.

THANK YOU!!

These people think this is something special and Obama is being rallied around it. Shows my exact point, people are weak and vulnerable and need a follower to follow and he has given these weak people hope. too many followers and not enough leaders.

We are the champions comes to mind for me, but Queen didnt get a red carpet treatment for saying 3 little words either and becoming a hero to the weak amoung us.

Too bad people need someone to hold their hand and make them feel all fluffy again.

A HA!!! I've figured it out. Barack Obama has a sister who's last name is Ng. Ng!!! Why, that's a Chinese name. And you know what that means, don't you?

It means Obama is a Chinese spy!!! I knew it!!
